We cultivate cacao using traditional indigenous methods of farming and are slave free certified with full traceability of our cacao. Each of our vegan, allergy safe and gluten free products is created and lovingly wrapped in Melbourne. We are grounded in tradition and proud to bring you the purist form of cacao from our villages to yours.
